How to fit a drawing in a Google spreadsheet cell? - excel

I know that you can fit an Image in a cell of a Google spreadsheet with =IMAGE()
as we can see here https://support.google.com/docs/answer/3093333?hl=en.
But I canĀ“t find any way to do the same with a Drawing in spite of that Google allows you to insert a Drawing in a spreadsheet.
To clarify, what I need is to fit a Drawing in a cell.
Thank you very much.

I have had the same problem in the past. The only way I could get around it was to create the drawing in Google Drawings, download it as a JPG and insert it using the =IMAGE() function.

How to color specific vtkCells?

I have a 3D model loaded into a vtkActor and I need to be able to color specific vtkCells of this actor after selecting (clicking on those vtkCells). I know how to retrieve the selected cells from the vtkUnstructuredGrid but have no idea of how to set color to them. I've read a bit about vtkLookUpTables and think that might be it but I don't understand how it works, or if it really is what I need.
Thanks.
You can use vtkExtractCells to fetch all special cells and form a vtkDataObject, then create vtkDataSetMapper and vtkActor objects to color and shot it.

Drive spreadsheet, wrapping link

I'm trying to find a way to make Google Spreadsheet wrap a link, and showing the content in many lines, just like microsoft excel works:
I've found nothing so far on how to implement this, which should be used very often I believe.
Here's how the same excel works imported to Google Spreadsheet:
In the google spreadsheet I selected "Wrap text" but it only wraps it, hiding the overflow of it, however I can't see the whole link.
Any help is greately appreciated.
If you don't mind modifying the contents of the cell in order to display wrapped text, you could use an additional column with a formula like this to insert spaces after certain characters so that the url can wrap:
=SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(B1,"&","& "),"/","/ "),"?","? "),"#","# ")
You should keep the original URL around though, since the resulting value will no longer be a valid URL.
Google Spreadsheets only wraps text where there is white space or hyphens. It will not wrap in the middle of a word the way Excel does. There's no way around this I'm afraid.

Exporting an Excel file to .html -- issues

Can anybody help me with this?
I am taking a table in Excel and exporting it as a web page. I noticed that the webpage rendered things differently -- such as spacing (it's putting in LOTS of white space where there should be none). Also, it's displaying columns that were hidden in my excel file.
Can anybody let me know how to export this so that the space rendering is not so different?
Also, does anybody know how to export this in a way where I can keep some Excel functions (i.e. sort, filtering, etc.)?
For hidden columns, Excel's html format simply doesn't respect them. I set my column width to 1 pixel to "hide" them. If you have a lot of them together, it looks terrible in Excel and creates even more white space in the html, but I couldn't come up with a better way.
I think you could use Appizy to do it. It's a render service from .ods to .html :
First transform your Excel file into an OpenDocument with Open or LibreOffice
Convert it using the html render tool of Appizy. The hidden cells will have the css attribute "display:none"
If you don't want your formulas to be working, the free version should be fine for you. I hope it can help.
BR, Nicolas
